    If i setup a cdn for the image content and use a filter like this

    function my_cdn_upload_url() {
    return ‘http://mk124.yourcdn.com/yoursite/wp-content/uploads’;
    }
    add_filter( ‘pre_option_upload_url_path’, ‘my_cdn_upload_url’ );

    to modify the uploads url before it is called.

    Does GD use these functions to get the upload path and therefore will honour the filters or does it have them hardcoded only?

    If it is hardcoded can i just modify the paths in the DB to make them look int he correct place?

    HI,

    I believe “pre_option_upload_url_path” is WP API. We use a different uploader, not the media library, so I believe this will not work.

    Stiofan was working with another member to add a similar option to GD Booster.

    I’ve flagged this for him so that he can follow up with you.

    Thanks

    ok

    I am not using gdbooster currently as it breaks the site (again due to the very cool but oddly coded theme i am using)

    If there is an alternative then id be up for testing anything to assist.

    Hi,

    at the moment there is no such option at all.

    The Gd Booster solution hasn’t been developed yet. They are working on it. Once that is done, we could see if a similar solution can be added via functions.php of your theme.

    Thanks for your patience,

    ok sure

    are the images pulled from the db entry at the moment? ie could i modify the path there and it work? i understand that might be awkward but perhaps as a stopgap?

    HI,

    we never tested, but it should.

    Just do a backup of your database before testing.

    Thanks
